by RICHARD SCHNEIDER The University Committee on Human Relations recently issued a second report summarizing further curriculum changes resulting from Black Student Union demands made last May. The January 14 report mentioned the decision of the committee to advocate changes throughout the entire University curriculum wherever it was lacking in proper Black emphasis, instead of creating several required courses devoted exclusively to Black students. The latter alternative, the committee felt, would be merely an "inadequate, patchwork approach which would ignore the justice due to all DePaul students." The report stated that the committee has been continually encouraging "all colleges, divisions and departments to re-evaluate the total University pi'ogram." The changes in curriculum to date are as follows: BSS 101, Man Among Men. The required course in that division will Hire New BSU Counselor: Begins in Feb.
